Jake, you are just growing and growing right before mommy's eyes! Can you slow down, please? Naturally I want you to grow and thrive and be healthy, but I also love this baby stage when I can cuddle you as often as I like before you want to sit and play then crawl and walk then run and eventually outgrow your need for mommy. I know that sounds dramatic and possibly debbie downer-ish, but I'm experienced in this baby-grows-up-too-fast-for-mommy business. Here today gone tomorrow. And no matter how many pictures I take or video I capture, it will never compare to holding my sweet baby boy in my arms, taking in your newborn smells and feeling your soft newborn skin. Let's move on to here and now...some baby stats at 2 months:
11 lbs, 3 oz (25th-50th percentile)
23 1/2 inches (75th percentile)
head circumference 39cm (I didn't ask for the percentile)
you:
- still love to cuddle...it's one of my faves too
- hold your head up well and are a very alert little boy, you love to look around
- can grab my hair good and you do it quite often :)
- still get the hiccups and go from zero to why-aren't-you-feeding-me in moments
- love to smile at us and we love it too
- have started making those precious baby noises in such a sweet, soft little voice and Will is convinced you're saying words
- can lift your head some while on your belly
- still love that binky and I don't mind one bit
- haven't slept through the night yet but I'm hopeful we'll get there once I have a chance to set a better day time schedule (we got 5 hours the other night and pediatrician said 6 is technically "through the night")
We are so enjoying you as a sweet member of our family, we love you Jakie-poo!!
